Getting Married in the Berkshires: Winbrooke Wedding Venue Feature

Through careful renovations, they have transformed it into a stunning wedding destination.

Their Home Library Converted into a Charming Bar

While this home has only been in the Felix family since the 1980’s, it was originally built in 1905 so the classic architecture and charm are in abundance. One of our favorite details as we toured the property however was the bar! It was originally the home library and the wood shelves are all original to the home.
